When purchasing a golf bag, you must first decide if you want a cart bag or a stand bag.
Cart bags average between 6-7lbs and are designed to fit perfectly on the back of a golf cart or a pull cart, while still allowing access to all of the pockets.
Stand Bags
Stand bags usually weigh about 5lbs, making the stand bag a more practical option for the golfer who walks or takes a caddie on a regular basis. However, it will also sit comfortably on the back of a golf cart! Stand bags have retractable legs to help keep the bag upright on uneven surfaces out on the course, and backpack shoulder straps to help distribute weight evenly while carrying the bag.
14-Way Top
The 14-way has a slot for each club. In some of the higher-end bags the dividers extend all the way to the bottom of the bag, preventing grips from intertwining with each other.
Woode Top (Ogio)
The woode top is specific to Ogio bags. There is an individual slot for your driver, fairways, hybrids and putter. The 3 larger slots are allocated for your irons. This is a great option for the golfer who likes their bag organized, but doesn't care for the 14-way top.
5-Way Top (Taylormade and Ping)
The 5-way top is divided into 3 separate sections. Two of the sections are additionally divided in half, while the front section remains open for wedges and your putter.
